Description
The present invention relates to a kind of writable optical record carrier, more particularly, relate to a kind of WORM of record or RW dish, it comprises that by the separated a plurality of recording layers of a kind of interval insulant each recording layer comprises optimum power calibration (OPC) district.The invention still further relates to a kind of method and apparatus that is used on this writable optical record carrier, forming optimum power calibration area.
Growing demand to data memory capacity has caused developing the high-density optical record medium, for example write-once or rewritable DVD dish and Blu-ray disc (BD).In these situations, the numerical aperture (NA) by increasing object lens and by reducing record/read Wavelength of Laser makes data capacity be improved.
A kind of additional project that is used to obtain high storage capacity is the quantity that increases recording layer.For example, by introducing n information storage layer, can make data capacity improve n doubly.For DVD+R, DVD+RW, BD-R and BD-RW medium, a current back scheme of continuing to use just.It is known that twice increases (in dual layer discs), and four times of increases (in four layers of dish) are in conceptual phase.
The present known principle that writes that two kinds of main differences are arranged: (for example at write-once medium, CD-R, DVD+R and DVD-R) situation under be the dyestuff record, under the situation of rewritable media (for example CD-RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD+RW and BD-RW), be phase-change recording.
Phase change recording layers generally includes a kind of phase-change material, and it is typically and is clipped in two alloys with lasting polycrystalline structure in the lamination between the dielectric ZnS-SiO2 layer.The energy that writes laser beam with its irradiation record carrier by the tracer signal modulation will farthest be absorbed by phase-change material, cause the phase transformation from the crystalline phase to the amorphous phase thus.And crystalline phase (ground state) has higher reflectivity, and amorphous phase (write state) has the reflectivity that reduces.Therefore, depend on and read that light beam impinges upon write area (mark) or not on the write area (ridge) that recording layer focuses on the light beam that reads on the described recording stack with different intensity reflection.
Dye recording layer typically is made of organic dye layer that comprises dye materials (similar, for example ultramarine, phthalocyanine or metallized azo thing) and reflective metal layer, and described reflective metal layer typically is made of gold, silver or aluminium.Write laser beam and will be recorded layer segment ground and absorb, thereby bleach lastingly and irreversibly and decompose dye materials.The light beam that reads that shines on the mark that writes in such mode will be by that mark part ground scattering.Therefore, depend on that in intensity of light reflected on the reflective metal layer reading light beam shines on the mark or the almost interference-free recording layer that passes through.
Like this, the recording status of layer comprises the variation of this layer average reflection, and influences its transmission.Under the situation of multilayer disc, this means on an appointment ((in-focus) in focus) layer, carry out read and write the influence that has other (focus alignment (out-of-focus)) layer in generally being coiled.In the NA of object lens scope, then according to the situation that exists in the out-of-focus layer of mark (representative data) in that zone, the parasitic light and their average reflection that produce at the out-of-focus layer place are proportional.In addition, exist data can cause the transmission property difference of those layers in the out-of-focus layer.Therefore, when laser beam by one or more layers time, the optical power that is received by in-focus layer is changed, and whether comprises data according to peripheral layer in the NA of object lens scope and can obtain different top condition (that is, Writing power, focal shift etc.).
In order to obtain the record data of best quality on CD, driver was carried out optimum power calibration procedure (OPC) before recording processing as everyone knows.By this OPC process, driver is identified for the best power of record data.Usually, no matter when will coil (empty or partial record) is inserted into and all carries out this OPC process in the driver.For multiplayer optical disk, the possibility of result that carries out the OPC process for one deck depends on whether have data in other layer.
Record data for fear of obtain the difference quality in multiplayer optical disk then must solve these influences.In european patent application 1244096, a kind of dish that each recording layer of a plurality of recording layers all has the opc test district that has has been proposed.These opc test districts comprise the part with best power bang path and have the part of lowest power bang path.Yet, in this dish, very big by the space that these opc test districts occupy.

Above and other objects of the present invention, feature and advantage will become apparent by following description of a preferred embodiment in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:

Fig. 3 is the schematic plan view of the maximum deviation of two recording layers in the multilayer disc;
Fig. 4 is the sectional pattern with multilayer disc of n recording layer, and it shows ground floor L0 and final layer Ln-1; With
Fig. 5 is the sectional pattern with multilayer disc of n recording layer, and it shows a pair of successive layers Li and Li-1.
Fig. 1 represents the sectional view according to first embodiment of writable optical record carrier of the present invention.Described writable optical record carrier is the multilayer disc 100 that comprises four recording layer L0 to L3 in this case, and wherein with respect to incident beam, L0 is ground floor or outermost layer, and L3 is a bottommost layer.In other words, L0 has defined the light beam light incident side of dish.Every layer of L0 to L3 comprises an OPC district 101,111,121 and 131 respectively.Except the OPC district of bottommost layer L3, each OPC district all has first 102,112 and 122 respectively, and it has represents the not average reflection value of recording layer.In addition, each recording layer L0 to L3 comprise be used for storage control data or user data do not write data field 104,114,124,134.Figure 1 illustrates the opc test laser beam 106 that enters dish from described light incident side.Arrow 105,115,125 is illustrated in the parasitic light of first's place reflection in the OPC district of out-of-focus layer L0 to L2, and light beam 106 focuses on the bottommost layer L3.In this case, provide first just enough only for layer L0, L1, L2 layer.Yet, the first with average reflection value of representing recording layer is provided also can for layer L3.
Fig. 2 represents the identical embodiment of 4 layers of dish 200.Opc test laser beam 206 is focused on the second layer L1 of dish 200 in this case, and arrow 205,225,235 is illustrated in the light of out-of-focus layer L0, L2 and the reflection of L3 place.More accurately, light reflects at second (not writing) part, 223,233 places in the OPC zone of first (writing) part 212 in the OPC zone of L0 and L2 and L3 respectively.
Can both find out that from Fig. 1 and 2 the OPC district is configured to overlap, so that make every pair of step of first formation in the OPC district of recording layer in succession, and the OPC district of described a plurality of recording layers has the form of ladder.Because its shape, these zones also are called staircase areas.
The direction of staircase areas is by the order that each layer write down (from the top to the bottom or from bottom to top) definition.In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 and 2, the order of record is from the top to the bottom (L0 is to L3).If the reverse order (from bottom to top) of record is preferred, it just will be enough first being provided then only for layer L1, L2, L3.
Generally, carried out the OPC process by the general optic disc register before the recording processing of reality, because for example during the real time record film, layer jumps, and to need to carry out new OPC process be unacceptable, and it will cause the loss of part film.Therefore, the OPC zone should just exist before the OPC process begins.For example when being installed in " blank " dish on the register first, can produce described OPC zone by writing suitable mark by register itself, perhaps they are write down (ROM) on ready-made dish in advance.In the former situation, control module can be provided in register, it is arranged for detecting at register carried out OPC zone ablation process when not having the OPC zone to exist before the OPC process begins.Therefore, for example will can be stored in the table or storer of register by " the pseudo-data " that writing unit writes.Described control module can further be arranged for controlling writing unit to produce the light beam that writes according to the pseudo-data-modulated of being stored.Then, write mark in the pre-position of layer on (in the example shown in Fig. 1 and 2, only on layer L0, L1, the L2) of dish, form the first of optimum power calibration area thus on each of these layers, it has the average reflection value of representing recording layer.
Note, the quality of data in the OPC zone that write by register or record in advance is unimportant, as long as it can produce the average reflection value of representing recording layer, the reflectivity that does not for example write the initial state layer is 75%, is 25% and write (bleaching or amorphous) regional reflectivity.
Below, we consider the inner radius R near dish
MinThe OPC district at (center) and carry out situation about from the top to the bottom, writing down with respect to the laser light incident side of dish.The present invention also can be applicable to the bottom to the top record.In addition, following argumentation can extend to any other radius in direct mode, preferably extends to the external diameter R near dish
MaxThe OPC zone of (periphery).
In order to ensure during the OPC with during user data record, run into identical situation (by/by above and the reflection/transmission of following surface layer), next to determine the minimum step width.Two kinds of influences have been considered: the drift angle of the cone-shaped beam of deviation of each layer or excentricity and incoming laser beam.
Incident is read or is write light beam and focused on by the object lens of the read/write unit of register.This just produces a cone-shaped beam that has by the vertex angle theta of the numerical aperture NA of object lens definition.It is:
NA=n
m×sin(Θ), (2)
N wherein
mBe the refraction coefficient by the medium of its propagation, described medium for example is with the separated interval insulant of recording layer.
On the out-of-focus layer that is positioned at the distance, delta place, the spot radius R of generation is:
Determine the minimum widith of staircase areas so that guarantee that the opc test light beam is always by having the higher layer (write down to the bottom at the top) that is positioned at of the average reflection of representing recording layer by this radius R.
Till now, also do not consider the situation of the possible deviation of each layer.Layer in the multilayer disc should be about a reference point, for example ideal geometrical center of Pan gravity alignment.With respect to this reference point, the tolerance of each layer location, in other words the eccentric throw of the pre-groove spiral of each layer is ε.This means that any layer in the multilayer disc is to relative to each other all almost skew+2 ε or-2 ε, referring to Fig. 3.Show the inner radial R in the OPC zone of two typical layers
Min302 and 312.Their center 304,314 skew+2 ε (to the right) or-2 ε (left).For the deviation or the excentricity of proofreading and correct maximum possible,, as follows with extra 2 ε of increasing of width that consider the staircase areas of successive layers.
The starting position in the OPC district on the bottommost layer Ln-1 of the dish of N lamination is defined as R
OPC, Ln- 1When Ln-1 was in focus, ground floor L0 went up the width w with respect to the luminous point of incident light
Ln-1, L0The equation that can provide from above (3) calculates.Cone-shaped beam 406 is all caught by the first 402 that writes among the L0 when guaranteeing that not writing on the second portion 433 in Ln-1 carried out OPC, and the second portion in the OPC zone among the Ln-1 should start from:
Δ wherein
TotFor the total vertical range between Ln-1 and the L0 (all at interval thickness and), referring to Fig. 4.
In addition, in order to guarantee that not writing on the second portion 523 in Lk+1 focuses on the light beam on layer Lk+1 when carrying out OPC light cone 506 all should be by 502, two successive layers Lk of the first of record among the next higher level Lk and the step size between the Lk+1:
Δ wherein
K, k+1For the spacer thickness between successive layer, referring to Fig. 5.Note the Δ between the different layers
K, k+1Can change.
These considerations mean in n layer dish, all should observe following equation for the minimum widith wi of the first in the OPC district of every layer of Li (i=0......n-1):
Wherein, Δ
K, k+1Be the spacer thickness between layer k+1 and the k.Notice that first sum term is equivalent to the total spacer thickness Δ between Ln-1 and the L0
Tot, and because Kronecker dalta function δ
I, n-1, for i=n-1, last sum term will go to zero.Notice that bottommost layer Ln-1 does not need to have and the first of the corresponding average reflection value of recording layer, will be to its darker layer that focuses on because do not have.Therefore, also can be with w
N-1Be made as zero.In addition, ground floor L0 does not need to have and the second portion of the corresponding average reflection value of recording layer not, can carry out the OPC process in the user data area of ground floor because if need yet.Therefore, the breadth extreme in OPC district can be restricted to w
0
By remove the track quantity in the first in OPC district that ladder width obtains to comprise (puppet) data with orbit interval.
The second portion in OPC district, the place that the OPC process promptly takes place in layer always is defined as contiguous its first.This guarantees for many OPC process of carrying out on the single-deck, is arranged in the requirement that out-of-focus layer needs data (not having data) higher (lower) and is satisfied, especially when each OPC on every layer uses the track of equal number.The total length available for the OPC district can require to be provided with by other.
When test data new in the OPC process was written in the second portion in OPC district of arbitrary floor, the condition of minimum step size may no longer be satisfied.Therefore, in another embodiment of the present invention, the equipment that is used to write down be arranged for (temporarily) storage with during the OPC process on this layer the corresponding information of maximum quantity of track (or data block) of record.In addition, it is arranged for, and record causes representing the data or the mark of the average reflection value of recording layer on other layer, makes the track (data block) of equal number be recorded in the second portion in the OPC district on all floor.
For example, at NA=0.65, n
m=1.55, Δ=50 μ m, 2 ε=70 μ m and according to equation (6) OPC district in the DVD-dual layer+R of internal diameter of dish, first's internal diameter that we obtain the second portion in the OPC district among following result: the L1 (bottommost layer) starts from from R
Min, L1The following width that the beginning (internal diameter) of the L1 track at place has calculated:
W1=70+0.46*50=93 μ m=126 track
For L0 (ground floor), the width of the first in OPC district is from R
Min, L0The beginning of the L0 track at place calculates:
W0=70+0.46*50+70+0.46*50=186 μ m=251 track
The second portion in the OPC district among the L0 is closelyed follow at w

At NA=0.65, n
